BSTF #942-Armageddon EXCITED Just Thinkin' about It!
Dec. 16, 2012, 12:31 p.m.
YES! It's APOCALYPSE TIME again, seekers--and whosever final act it is, I am THERE! Just in case those wacky, loosely translated Mayans got it right and December 21st IS the end of time as Pinks know it, we'll need some background music--so I cobbled us together an hour-long array of the finest EndTimes ambience for the way out, featuring Oingo Boingo, Wanda Jackson, Nina Hagen, the Queers, Tom Lehrer, '80s bands the Suburbs and Root Boy Slim and the Sex-Change Band with the Rootettes, the Chad Mitchell Trio, Suburban Lawns, Wendy O. Williams and the Plasmatics, the Dead Milkmen, and Frances Cannon (AKA Fran Baskerville) the Singing Psychic with a FUNHOUSE favorite--"Earthquakes," her flat, nasal, disco-fueled, and totally sincere dire warning for tectonic turmoil in 1987.
So dare to think of it--this is where all that procrastination you've been investing is going to pay off BIG TIME! At this point, anything you've been wise enough to back-burner ain't NEVER gonna get done. HA! And I wouldn't waste my time this week cleaning my house or brushing my teeth or wiping my butt or--hell, or ANYTHING that takes work. Because if we're lucky, it's all gonna BURN...!!!!
But--where have we heard THAT one before?!!

Sandy a Disaster for Public Housing Tenants in NYC
Dec. 15, 2012, 6:26 p.m.
NYC Public Housing Tenants Hung Out To Dry In Wake Of Sandy
When Hurricane Sandy slammed NYC, tens of thousands public housing tenants were left without power, heat, & running water; elderly & disabled residents were trapped on the upper floors of the developments, oftentimes lacking food and water and life essential medical needs. Weeks after the wind roared and the water surged the voices of NYC Housing Authority ("NYCHA") tenants continued to be drowned out, amidst the complacency of NYCHA to the still unresolved issues and conditions. When NYCHA management finally met with the tenants, long after Sandy came and went it was greeted by the pained & angry protestation of the tenants due to its failure to show concern for, response to and accountability for the horrible conditions that many still endure. The chorus of residents decried NYCHA's response to refusing immediate rent abatements, to compensate them for their suffering and losses during and in the aftermath of the hurricane. Chanting "No services, no rent," many of the residents left the meeting in disgust to reconvene later, formulate demands and plan to take their complaints to NYCHA headquarters.
